One of the big steps to becoming a boss who enables others is understanding that you can’t do it all yourself, and that your job is to help other people do more than you could yourself alone. I am learning that as I transition from being “the buck stops here guy“ to a manager
it’s as simple as not taking a submissive or apologetic tone. Realizing you are a peer with the other party.
Also cutting out filler words and disfluencies common in casual conversation.
No. The eq should be the inverse of the room/speaker response; it’s irrelevant if the gains add to zero.
And, most music has way more energy in certain (generally lower) bands, so it’s not like making the numbers sum to zero results in the same total energy.

Sadly my parents’ new IP phone service uses the dialtone as some kind of branding trick - you go off-hook and get this “designed” audio prompt that slides into a normal dialtone, presumably to make you remember you’re not just using “the phone”. It was very disconcerting when I first heard it.
Can you link or provide reference to the official US narrative?
Don’t forget emacs org-mode! https://orgmode.org
Data access is just one issue. Executing CCP propaganda policy (shadowbanning topics critical of the CCP and amplifying topics that divide/destabilize western democracies) is at least as worrisome.
TikTok is actively censoring any criticism of the CCP - a much larger global actor who is currently erasing the Uighur and Tibetan cultures.
Probably did it to stop Republican senators from trolling for anonymous sex a la https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Craig_scandal
more Kanban - including, hold off new orders until we have capacity.
That format makes it into a round of status reports, especially if the manager is present. Better is: “What are you blocked on, who will help, or who’s time do you need today - confirm it now, right after this meeting is best!”
If your company is using story points to “measure” developers, they are completely misusing that concept, and it probably results in a low-teamwork environment (as you describe).
The purpose of story points is so a team can say “we’re not taking more than X work for the next two weeks. Make sure it’s the important stuff.” It is a way to communicate a limit to force prioritization by the product owner.
And, in fact, data shows that point estimation so poorly converges on reality that teams may as well assign everything a “1”. The key technique is to try to make stories the same size, and to reduce variability by having the team swarm/mob to unblock stuck work.
Who creates these tasks? They need to close the year old items, reevaluate the work and break it down into sub-5-day chunks. If there are so many unknowns that it’s impossible to do that, the team needs to brainstorm how to resolve them.
I got permanently banned for reporting spam (“abusing the report button”) after I reported 8 Vice articles posted in /r/politics by the Vice self-promotion account in one day.
Meanwhile, the spam guidelines page says - if you create an account primarily to promote your own content, you may be a spammer. And as a redditor, you should report spam.
They lost a 12 year long user who primarily engaged in niche technical subjects who went out of their way to answer newcomers’ questions.
fyi the NeXT OS is called NeXTSTEP.
“Oi, where the bloody hell’s the other chopping board, mate?”
“Yall, where the fuck the other cutting board at?”
FYI, banks do run exactly this type of analysis inside their own system to get around not being able to share your account activity.
Surge suppressors do not drop extra voltage to ground. They selectively short out surges between whatever two conductors have a high potential between them.
No ground conductor means there cannot be a high potential between it and anything else!
